Can't drag and drop to reorder layers - fixed

When I let up the mouse button, the layer returns where it came from. I can move layers with the buttons on the bottom of the dialog, but that doesn't allow me to move layers in or out of groups.

Between me starting this post and finishing it, I fixed it. I'm still going to post it because I couldn't find the solution anywhere online. Apparently, this problem has shown up due to incompatibility with a handful of programs -- the ones identified elsewhere online are Skype, Kaspersky Antivirus, Camtasia, Snagit, Camstudio, and Tuneup Utilities. I'm adding the program DisplayFusion to the list. I was quitting programs one at a time to troubleshoot, and when I exited DisplayFusion, I was suddenly able to drag and drop.

I hope this is helpful to someone somewhere along the line.

gremlin1384, can I hug you????

This has solved my problem. I Googled for a long time and couldn't find a solution. And then I came across this forum, and then I came across this post.

THANK YOU! In my case, it was because I was running Macromedia Fireworks.
